NEW YORK, NY - Kicking off a two-game home stint, the Yeshiva Women's Volleyball Team fell to Sarah Lawrence College, losing to the Gryphons by a score of 3-0 on Wednesday, Oct. 22nd.

HOW IT HAPPENED
- Yeshiva took an early lead to kick off the first set, going up 2-1 off a kill from Elle Ohayon. However, that advantage was quickly erased, with Sarah Lawrence jumping out to a 14-4 lead. From there, despite kills from Gasa and Sasha Aaron driving YU's point total into the double digits, the Macs could not regain control of the period, falling by a score of 25-10.
- The Maccabees struggled in set two. The women in blue and white only managed two kills, seeing the Gryphons take a 25-6 win.
- YU showed signs of rebounding in the third, keeping the set close through the first 26 serves and trailing by just four points at 15-11. Despite this early fight, the Macs would be held without a point for the rest of the period, ultimately losing the set, 25-11.
